Over the next two days, Cappadocia unfolds in a rich sequence of viewpoints, open-air heritage, and quiet villages where you can slow down between stops. You’ll have time for the region’s classic wonders — fairy chimneys, panoramic castles, and an underground world carved for survival — while still keeping your evenings relaxed. And if you want the ultimate Cappadocia memory, your optional sunrise hot-air balloon can be arranged for that storybook morning above the valleys. The core Istanbul and Cappadocia sightseeing flow matches the standard outline travelers expect from this route.
